CLASSICAL MUSIC TO STREAM THIS MONTH

With many opera houses and concert halls, particularly in the United States, still closed by the coronavirus pandemic for months to come, the musical action has moved online. That’s been the case since March, of course — but as fall is upon us, artists and institutions are creating digital presentations with more care and intention. There’s a flood of offerings out there. Here are four highlights coming in October.

Los Angeles Philharmonic

Gustavo Dudamel’s L.A. Philharmonic can be seen in half a dozen filmed concerts this fall on the orchestra’s free Sound/ Stage platform. This program, “Power to the People,” blends orchestral and more intimate performances. It features the Los Angeles players in works by two Black composers: William Grant Still and Jessie Montgomery, as well as a set of songs by Florence Price, sung by mezzo-soprano

Cleveland Orchestra

Oct. 15, 4 p.m. clevelandorchestra .com. Available live, then on demand For its virtual fall season, “In Focus,” the Cleveland Orchestra is presenting five “episodes” on its new platform, Adella — named after the group’s founder, Adella Prentiss Hughes. December will bring a can’t-miss concert with John Adams and pianist Vikingur Olafsson; but to start, Franz Welser-möst leads a program of Respighi’s third set of “Ancient Airs and Dances,” a musical embodiment of grace, as well as George Walker’s “Antifonys,” played by the Clevelanders for the first time, and Tchaikovsky’s “Souvenir de Florence.”

Detroit Symphony Orchestra

Oct. 22, 4:30 p.m.dso.org. Available live, then on demand Take your pick among the Detroit Symphony Orchestra’s well-balanced programs this fall; there’s not an uninteresting concert in sight. This one, led by Donald Runnicles, features a quartet by Carlos Simon and Benjamin Britten’s early “Variations for String Orchestra on a Theme of Frank Bridge.” The Simon, “An Elegy: A Cry From the Grave,” is a solemnly lyrical and emotive reflection on, its composer once wrote, those killed by an oppressive power. At the time the piece was written, he meant Black Americans like Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner and Michael Brown — a list that has only continued to grow.

Opera Philadelphia

Oct. 23, 5 p.m. operaphila.org. Available through May Among American opera companies, only the Metropolitan so far has created its own streaming channel. The Met will have a fellow shortly, when the plucky Opera Philadelphia launches its own paid streaming app. In addition to showcasing past productions, there will also be new content — like this opening-night “recital and conversation” program, featuring aesthetically wide-ranging tenor Lawrence Brownlee.
